The impact of increased efficiency in the industrial use of energy: A computable general equilibrium analysis for the United Kingdom ☆

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use an economy-energy-environment computable general equilibrium (CGE) model for the UK to measure the impact of a 5% across the board improvement in the efficiency of energy use in all production sectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The economics of distributed energy generation: a literature review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a critical literature review of the economics of increased penetration of distributed energy generation in the UK and provide suggestions for future research which are likely to be necessary in order to inform public policy on distributed generation and its role in the future of UK energy supply.
Journal ArticleDOI

Levelised costs of Wave and Tidal energy in the UK: Cost competitiveness and the importance of “banded” Renewables Obligation Certificates

TL;DR: In this article, publicly available cost data are used to calculate the private levelised costs of two marine energy technologies for UK electricity generation: Wave and Tidal Stream power, compared to those for ten other electricity generation technologies whose costs were identified by the UK Government (DTI, 2006).
Journal ArticleDOI

The economic and environmental impact of a carbon tax for Scotland: A computable general equilibrium analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the economic and environmental impact of a Scottish specific carbon tax under three alternative assumptions about the use of the revenue raised by the tax: revenues raised are not recycled within Scotland; revenues are used to increase general government expenditure or to reduce Scottish income tax.

The economic and environmental impact of a carbon tax in Scotland: a computable general equilibrium analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the economic and environmental impact of a Scottish specific carbon tax under three alternative assumptions about the use of the revenue raised by the tax: revenues raised are not recycled within Scotland; revenues are used to increase general government expenditure or to reduce Scottish income tax.
